Setting service level agreements

The Service Level Agreements (SLA) section is where you include optional information to capture the terms of service agreed upon by an organization and the service supplier who provides the service. SLAs contain text, documents, and individually assigned metrics that can be tracked and displayed in reports.

Important

To add an SLA, you must be logged in as a Service Catalog Administrator or Service Supplier Administrator.
